Has anyone compared the tonal differences between the Peavey USA JJ and JMM Milleniums? What was your take?

Millenium JJ vx JMM?

I have a lot of experience with Millennium J/MMs, they are great, well made basses. The downside can be that the eq is pretty complicated, and sometimes the it can be hard to get a nice slap tone because the MM pup is too close to the bridge for a true Stingray tone, and the lack of a coil splitter means that you cannot get a Jazz style slap tone the way you can on a 55-94/55-02. That said, the finger and pick tone of a J/MM is absolutely perfect! I don't love them for nothing!
The JJ Millennium will allow you to get a Jazz style tone with the benefit of a great eq system, if you can find one, get it!

I actually have the JJ...just was wondering what the MM in the bridge position brought to the party as opposed to the J.
